Greenwood Rising

Today, we remember the Tulsa Race Massacre and the destruction of Greenwood, a thriving community known as Black Wall Street.

For many years, the story of what happened in Tulsa was left out of classrooms, history books and public conversations. Organizations like Greenwood Rising are helping keep this history alive by sharing it with new generations.

Road to Remembrance: Two Cities, One Mission is an annual partnership between Greenwood Rising and the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum that brings students to both sites to learn about two defining moments in Oklahoma history and the lessons they still carry today. The program will return this fall for a new school year.
